1. An apparatus for maintaining received signal power levels at an average level when a signal power estimate on average is similar to the average of actually received signal power levels, comprising:

  • (a) estimating means for generating an estimate of the power of a received signal;

    (b) difference means, operatively coupled to the estimating means, for generating a difference signal by subtracting the estimated received signal power from a predetermined reference signal power; and

    (c) adjustment means, operatively coupled to the difference means, for adjusting a signal power control threshold as a function of the difference signal.
